if i went through 200 drug tests, over the last 13 years, and just ONE OF THEM was "re-tested" and came up positive...yeah, i think i'd "give up" too.

the USADA has no power to "strip him" of any title or rank (a US organization has no say in what happens in the tour de france, lawl) and he can't bike for ANYTHING the USADA has jurisdiction over (which happens to be absolutely nothing! :D).

by doing this, win or lose, he gets to keep his non-profit and keep fighting cancer. the USADA has been doing this for YEARS to him and have apparently gone drunk with power (lol overstepping authority)and have judged him to be guilty until proven innocent. (serirously, all they did was keep accusing him for the past 13 years and will PROBABLY keep doing it until they get a guilty verdict, then turn around and say "we told you we would get you"...douchey...)

Cadel Evans may be awarded the moral victor of the ?05? tour. He finished 8th and the 7 who finished before him have all been found guilty of doping. It seems like everyone is doping and it's just a matter of getting away with it

The thing is they have no evidence to prove that Armstrong was doping and he was tested all the time when he was racing and nothing came up. The guy was just better than everyone else, kind of like Jordan or Tiger. Armstrong is just smart enough to quit and not go broke defending something he can't win.

I didn't even realise it was on. Would be a wise bet to bet on the big 4 making the semis once agian. Men's tennis has become so predictable these days but it is still great to watch the best of the best battle each other

Well too its just the us anti-doping agency that stripped his tour titles-most likely the international agency will not

interestingly enough, for some races they've gone as far as stripped the title for the OTHER 22 riders behind lance...honestly, i think they're all doping at this point and chances are, he probably doped too.

if anything, they SHOULDN'T go after everything already done...just do the next comp with better restrictions

I agree about the Ravens. I also think the Bears will do well this year. Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall reunited along with forte in the backfield is a pretty potent offense, and their defense is solid as well. As much as I can't stand Cutler, I see them getting pretty far this year, not sure about super bowl, but they are definitely making strides.

My Super Bowl picks would have to be Patriots or Texans vs Packers or 49ers. If I had to pick just 2 I'd go with the Texans and 49ers

^^^ I'm really happy Andy won! Amazing how he came from that devastating loss in the Wimbledon finals, then Gold in the Olympics, and now USOPEN Champ! He was right when he said, "Well, I'm getting closer."

As for that Brit comment, "If he wins, he's one of us, if he doesn't, he's one of them." I HATE that quote and whoever said that, shame on them!

Yeah I'm pretty happy that Andy Murray won the US Open men's singles. All that hard work is finally paying off! If I only I could play that well in tennis.
